I.D. Bare Escentuals Bare Minerals, Part Trois!

[Ponine]

I bought my kit the opeing weekend of Phantom of the opera... but I have no idea how long ago that was now.
I've recently had major stresses in my life and they have spawned blemishes, but generally, my issue was my rosacea red cheeks, and the fact that washing off regular concelear with soap aggfravated my skin. And, made my cheeks even worse.

So, that said.
I still use my minerals pretty much daily.
The first day, the counter gal matched me, and she had me in medium. I really thought it was cakey and heavy, and pale.
I have since swithced to medium beige, or a combo of the two colors. AND, I dont put it on near as heavy as she did.

I find it odd BErica, that when i put it on, I dont see the differnce, as if it wasnt there. But I force myself to walk away, do my hair, put on my earrings, then go back and look. Its almost as if it takes time to 'set'.
That helps me to see that the lighter 'coat' really is enough. Otherwise I way over do.
And I rarely use mineral veil, and even more rarely warmth. My red dheeks still peek through and give the impression of blusher.

Blemishes, I use the tiny brush to cover the blemish, dark circles, or the aggravated red area, before I do the all over application.
I have yet to use the short little fat brush... For some reason I dont like it.

In short, it works for me, I need more. Now, what's glee?
